The contest held by Veritas Fund for Excellent (VFE) with
the cooperation of Subang Jaya Municipal Council was aimed at beautifying Taman
Tasik in Puchong.

Open to students of all local universities, it was held in
stages since last October.

Head of team, Muhamad Anuar Anas said the trio participated
on their own initiatives to turn the competition into a platform to gauge their
ideas and explore new experiences in the field of Landscape Design.

“We submited our proposed design before the closing date in
last December.”

“When we were informed that we managed to make it to the
finals, we had to make a presentation on last February 15 where we were
announced runners-up on the same day.”

“We never expected to have won the second place,” he said.

In the finals, they faced two teams from the International
Islamic University (UIA) and Lim Kok Wing University.

“Having qualified for the finals is in itself an
accomplishment because this contest was judged by a professional who is the
Chief Executive Officer of Veritas Design Group himself, Encik David
Mizan Hashim,” he added. - UPM
